No Aces or Kings today

I lost around 4o$ today saw nothing at IP. Saw aces at Bills to no avail they won.
Oh well. one of our regulars at Bills' has died. It was Bob Walters an old guy like me. He and I used to joke about whom would die first. He was the one who always said "Pass the Sherbert to Herbert" I am certain your aware of whom it was. He had survived kidney cancer the VA took out hid left kidney six years ago or so. WE occasionally ate together in the "Award Winning Victorian Room" where he liked the Chinese. He confided to me that he had smoked too much "pot" during his life and could not walk far without a rest because of it. We were infromed by a friend of his who visited Bills today and asked when the last time he had come there was? I couldn't remember when I saw him last? I was just used to him being around. I will miss him. I suppose we all will.
